Heartbroken... I miss my babygirl
I am having a very hard time. My darling sweet babygirl and absolute love of my heart, (besides my husband), has been gone 2 years this Dec 28. She lived 18 long happy loving years and was stuck to my side. She was so amazing. We had such a bond... indescribible. She was so frail 2 years ago. I did not want to make "that desicion". But she needed to be in a happier more peaceful place. And she did not fight the vet as she always did. I think she knew he was going to make her feel better. I told her thank you for being my special babygirl and always being there for me but her job is done and it was ok now and I hugged her and sobbed and she purred so loud in my ear and I know it took all of her stregth to do that. I put her down and held her head as she went to sleep and kissed her a ton of times with tears. I know she is in a happy place now no longer suffering. I just miss her more than anything right now. :(:love: My Silver was my babygirl and my heart aches so much for her.

It takes a lot of time...
to heal when we lose someone we love so much. I sympathize so much with you...My family and I said goodbye to one of our beloved cats, Billy, in June, and I'm still in tears from time to time. Your story about how you said goodbye to your babygirl had me in tears because it is so much like how we said goodbye to our Billy. He was 17, and had chronic renal failure, and the end was a blessing because, like you said, he went on to a happier place with no more suffering. We all loved him so much, but Billy and I had such a bond...I've had cats all my life, but he was so very special to me. I've never had another cat like him, and I know I probably won't again. Billy was a once in a lifetime animal, and I know that I will miss him for the rest of my life.
One reason you may be having such a hard time right now is because it is the holidays. I know. This is the first Christmas in 17 years that we have not had Billy with us, so I understand that it can be a particularly tough time. I wish that I had something magic to say to help you feel a bit better, but I really don't except this...When I find myself having a bad moment from missing Billy, instead of letting myself get so upset, I remind myself of everything that was so wonderful about him, and where he is now, and how healthy and happy he must be as he watches over us all. This does often help, and maybe it will help you, too.
Take care, and hang in there. :)
